Unbeaten light welterweight Denis Shafikov (26-0-1, 15 KOs) scored a fifth round TKO over Nugzar Margvelashvili (18-10, 7 KOs). Margvelashvili took an eight-count in round four after a body punch punch from the southpaw Shafikov, who pretty much did what he wanted to do.

Super featherweight Eva Wahlstrom (5-0, 2 KOs) won a six-rounder over Kristine Shergold (4-5, 1 KO). Shergold took an 8-count in round four after a hard short right to the head. Shergold was very strong and landed very good body shots every round, but Eva was better and hit harder. Scores were 59-55, 58-56 and 58-56.

Welterweight Jussi Koivula (8-0, 3 KOs) topped Konstantins Sakara (7-18-1, 6 KOs) over six by scores of 60-54, 60-56 and 59-55.
